“Bandera scum!” communists almost got into a fight with each other at a debate
Russian presidential candidate from the Communists of Russia party, Maxim Suraikin, had to be pulled away today during a debate from the confidant of the candidate from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation, Maxim Shevchenko, directly on the air of the Russia-1 TV channel, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
Initially, the candidate from the Communist Party of the Russian Federation Pavel Grudinin spoke at the debate himself, and Suraikin was not in the studio at all. Everyone assumed he was stuck in traffic and agreed to give him extra time when he got there.
But it turned out that everything was completely different. Suraikin was detained by security when he tried to take a woman standing in front of the entrance to the television. The woman held a single picket against the Communist Party candidate Pavel Grudinin, claiming that she was a former employee of his state farm.
Suraikin also calls himself a communist and therefore considers Grudinin his main competitor. He immediately appointed the picketer, whose last name turned out to be Filkina, as his confidant and demanded that she be given the floor during the debate.
While the TV channel's lawyers contacted the CEC, the other candidates filled the pauses in the main conflict of the debate. Finally, Filkina was launched into the studio, but by this time her antagonist Grudinin had magically disappeared from the air.
His place was taken by journalist Maxim Shevchenko, a confidant of the Communist Party candidate and a terror for the liberals. Over the past month, he became famous for beating Nikolai Svanidze and bringing Ksenia Sobchak to tears. Everything is live. Let us note that this is not the first time that his candidate has left the studio when the debate has gone in an uncomfortable direction for him.
Shevchenko immediately demanded that Suraykin, who was standing behind his new confidant, leave the studio. Presenter Vladimir Solovyov agreed that the demand was fair.
When Suraikin was already leaving, Shevchenko shouted at him in the back: “Bandera provocateur!” The presidential candidate could not stand it and rushed at the offender. Soloviev tried to restrain him, but to no avail. I had to help candidate Titov and the channel’s employees.
“Is it me from Bandera?! “I’ll break your jaw, you hired scum,” Suraikin shouted as he was taken out of the studio.
Poor Filkina was confused. Sobchak tried to calm her down: “Don’t pay attention. This happens all the time,” said Ksenia, who was not hit by fellow candidates, but was insulted on a regular basis.
Finally, Filkina began to perform. As a result, the woman told the story of how Grudinin promised her family housing on a state farm, but then fired her. As a sign of protest, she tried to self-immolate. “You are not a confidant. It is illegal. You drank and didn't work well. There are no visible burns on your body,” Shevchenko simultaneously spoiled.
Ksenia Sobchak tried to reason with him, but to no avail.
